The new IPL season is underway. Mumbai Indians score just 121/8 from their 20 overs. Buttler makes a duck in his IPL debut, Simmons and Pollard don't fare much better, and their innings was saved from total disaster thanks to an unlikely 45 from Harbhajan Singh.

Very hard to see them defending such a paltry total on this batting paradise. This was the same ground England chased down 229 against South Africa.

These Mumbai Indian shirts might be the flashiest I have ever seen. So much gold! Also an incredible amount of sponsors littered over almost every inch.

Supergiants in cruise control, though have been aided by a few edges finding the boundaries and not in fielders hands. Just 46 needed with 11 overs remaining.

Rahane finishes that in emphatic style. KP once again looking top notch. A comfortable stroll in the park for the Supergiants.

I guess the World Cup spoiled us with two games per day. One match a day is like having dinner without dessert. I want ice cream.

MUMBAI, India, CMC – West Indies batsmen Lendl Simmons and Kieron Pollard both failed as reigning champions Mumbai Indians slumped to a heavy nine-wicket defeat to new franchise Rising Pune Supergiants, in the opening game of the new Indian Premier League season here Saturday.
Opting to bat first, Mumbai showed plenty rust in stumbling to 121 for eight off their 20 overs at the Wankhede Stadium but Supergiants experienced no such glitches, racing to their target in the 15th over.
Opener Ajinkya Rahane top-scored with an unbeaten 66 off 42 deliveries and put on 78 for the first wicket with South African Faf du Plessis who made 34 from 33 balls.
Englishman Kevin Pietersen chipped in with an unbeaten 21 off 14 balls.
Earlier, Simmons managed just eight at the top of the order while Pollard scored just one at number six, as Mumbai’s batting collapsed.
Veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh top-scored with an unbeaten 45 off 30 balls batting at number eight while middle order batsman Ambati Rayudu chipped in with 22.
Simmons, a member of the West Indies T20 World Cup winning squad last week, looked to be finding his touch when he clobbered pacer RP Singh for a straight six in the third over.
However, he perished in the next over, playing across a full length inswinger from seamer Ishant Sharma at 29 for two.
Pollard was fifth out in the eighth over with the score on 40, lbw to medium pacer Rajat Bhatia, playing back to one that came in.

For those that didn't get to bask in the glory of the Mumbai Indians shirts:



More gold than Mr. T. I am seriously impressed how they were able to squeeze sponsors logos on almost every inch of their kit.

Two IPL matches, two one-sided routs. Just a few days after WT20, wonder whether there's enough breathing space for both cricketers & fans.

Agreed. Not the best of starts to this year's incarnation of the IPL. Another low scoring non-competitive affair.

No heroics from Brathwaite today. Andre Russell with a nice showing with the ball. Old man Hastings continues to impress me. Surprised he didn't feature against India in Australia's crucial match against India.

This Dehli team looks really short on quality and may struggle badly.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
